AB enjoys black coffee, watching Action/Adventure/Fantasy/Sci-Fi films, the Oxford comma, and waxing poetic about functional shoes. He suffers from a slight Napoleon Complex and some sort of attention deficit disorder, which he credits to his ability to teach multiple people at once. Speaking of which he’s a big fan of Napoleon pockets.. and pants with four-way stretch.. and shoes. Did we mention that?

Andrew’s fitness journey started in high school with Sports Medicine. After moving to Seattle he attended the pilot Personal Fitness Instructor program at Ashmead College in 2006. He landed a job at a “big box” gym where he moved up to Fitness Management and built a reputation doing “weird shit” like full-depth back squats and snatches. That gym valued sales over members goals, so he left to start FCF with a client inside a storage unit. That was almost a decade ago.

Now you can find him coaching Olympic Weightlifting at 6am and various CrossFit classes throughout the week.

Tony Lau

Business Owner, Master Planner, Rocket Scientist, Dog Whisperer

The traveler, the Tonytail™, the tagline: “I’ll make you famous,”. Hailing from the sunny state of California, his aerospace career brought him up to the NW where he trained with AB all the way back at FCF 1.0 in 2008. The two of them then decided to reopen up Foundation CrossFit in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle with a new game plan and new purpose. Because FCF isn’t just a gym, but a think tank meant to eventually change the world!

Tony started his fitness career as a young buck needed to relieve the stress of the day job, and to supplement his volleyballing, surfing, and general beach bumming. He started CrossFitting in Huntington Beach until work moved him to Seattle.

Now you can find him operating the gym and rebuilding our website while preparing for his first olympic weightlifting meet!

Sheena Camagong

The First Lady of FCF, Freckled Flourishes Calligraphy

CrossFit Level 1 Trainer

CrossFit Advanced Kettlebell Trainer

CrossFit Level 2 Trainer

Dubbed “First Lady” for a reason: Sheena has been there since the beginning. Her first ever CrossFit workout was Fight Gone Bad and still loves that work out to this day. In August 2016, she became a first time mama to a baby girl aka the #magicalbabyjedi and is also dog-mama to the gym mascot Appa the Frenchie. When she’s not lovin’ on her babies you can find her back to coaching, working out and building her calligraphy hobby into a business.

Andrea is our Matriarch of the Morning and Mother to Declan, whose lifetime of gymnastics experience informs her exceptional body awareness, ability, and teaching, but also shows on her face when you try her because Mama Ain’t Got Time. If you’re wondering if you’re on her good side or bad side, the answer is always a resounding, “Yes.” She can be found with wee babe attached to hip or t*t and making sure you leave the gym how you found it.

Sarah Mohr

If Gaia, Mother of the Earth, made love to a Titan, you’d get Coach Sarah–or SMOHR, as her teammates call her because you’ll certainly want that, some more. With all the warmth of the sun, her award winning hugs will remedy your cloudy day and anoint you with the strength and power of your untapped potential. She can be found training for triathlons, tending to her farm, and will soon be rescuing limp bodies from burning buildings.

Jessie West

Gym Mom, Mobilizer Extraordinaire

CrossFit Level 1 Trainer

CrossFit Movement and Mobility Trainer

CrossFit Kettlebell Level 1 Trainer

Jessie was a three sport athlete in high school, played some college softball, and was introduced to her love of hiking in college while taking a class where they hiked at night. After college she became a weekend warrior. Life turned more and more sedentary as she aged and found herself at a corporate desk job which was slowly killing her, mentally and physically. After finding CrossFit, she wants to give back to the community that has changed her life by helping others transform their lives. You can find her working out at 6AM, coaching AM classes, or behind our front desk as Office Manager.

Leslie Bower

A practitioner some forms of Chinese Medicine and CrossFit, Leslie is amazingly proficient at being objective about people’s bodies and how to improve them. Hailing from Boise, ID her favorite movie is The Breakfast Club and her favorite food is Kale. Before CrossFit she was a runner/cyclist/swimmer. When not CFing Les like to telemark and skate ski, as well as farm and garden. She found out that building chicken coops require much strength and stamina, and raising them requires speed, mobility, agility, and accuracy FOR REAL!

Interested in becoming part of our team?

Generally we don’t start any conversations about coaching until we’ve gotten to know you as an athlete, seeing you as a student of your sport. We want to make sure that we are all on the same page for the many training methodologies out there and that potential coaches need to be part of a community before leading it. We welcome you to join our gym as an athlete, and we would be happy to discuss the roadmap to become an instructor in our facility. We have an FCF Coaches Development Program you can inquire about with the owners in person.
